Beverly Artists - Design the New Downtown Banners, Win $150!

Attention artists and designers that live, work or study in Beverly! This is a great opportunity to showcase your talent and get free PR! Every year Beverly Main Streets select local artists to design our summer and winter downtown light pole banners. Over 50 banners are installed downtown, and they include the signature of the artist. If your design is selected, you will receive an honorarium of $150 or a free banner with your name on the sponsor tag. We encourage you to send us your banner ideas!

The complete “Call to Artists” and submission form is available on the BMS website at http://www.beverlymainstreets.org/documents/banner_contest_call_to_artists_1.11.13.pdf. Submissions must be received by Friday, February 8, 2013.

The downtown light pole banner program benefits the community in many ways – by promoting the downtown and attracting more customers, supporting local artists, and providing an advertising opportunity for local businesses. The banners are installed on Cabot, Elliott and Rantoul Streets, and include tags with the names of sponsors. BMS is accepting sponsorship orders now – go to http://www.beverlymainstreets.org/buy-a-banner-92.html to order your 2013 banners before Friday, March 1, 2013.
